I learned a TON and was totally entertained at the same time. I’m a huge fan of Steve K. and geek out for politics, but had no knowledge whatsoever about the genesis of today’s brand of politics. Thanks for the education! And I’m telling anyone who will listen to check this out!! I’m anxious to see what’s next!! Please do another series!!
